My DD was doing the exact same thing re. 2x 40 min naps..I could never extend them! and I think that's quite a common thing. It is hard though isn't it..it just doesn't seem to be enough sleep for them!
When my DD was about 1 yr, she then started going to bed at 6pm which I found was great for her and me! Around this time she then started sleeping through until about 5-6am too. Maybe try an earlier bed time and see how that goes?
Michaela will probably change her routine anyway very soon..they tend to do that just to confuse us I think! So hang in there!
Oh, and on the good day sleeps=good night sleeps thing, I don't think that's always the case. My DD is a pretty crappy day sleeper but is great at nights now!
